Career
editBorn in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Diá started his career with hometown side Força e Luz in 1995. He took over ABC in the following year, and then worked with Penapolense, São Gonçalo-RN and Alecrim before returning to ABC in 2004.
In 2009, while in charge of Alecrim, Diá achieved promotion to the Série C with the club before leaving.[1] In October, he was appointed América de Natal,[2] and left the club in the following month to take over Mogi Mirim after avoiding relegation in the Série B.[3]
Diá was sacked by Mogi in February 2010, after five consecutive defeats,[4] and subsequently returned to América. He resigned from his latter club in March,[5] and worked with Botafogo-PB for the remainder of the year.
Diá returned to América for a third spell in May 2011,[6] but was relieved of his duties two months later. He was appointed at the helm of Baraúnas for the ensuing campaign in late October,[7] and also worked at Santa Cruz-RN[8] and Icasa[9] throughout the 2012 campaign.
Diá was sacked by Icasa in June 2013, and took over Grêmio Barueri in August.[10] He left in September, after five losses in five matches and a subsequent relegation to the Série D, and was named manager of Nacional-AM.[11]
On 5 August 2014, Diá was presented at ASA,[12] but was dismissed eight days later after just one match.[13] He took over Campinense late in the month,[14] and led the club to two consecutive Campeonato Paraibano titles before leaving in June 2016.[15]
On 26 June 2016, six days after leaving Campinense, Diá returned to América for a fourth spell.[16] He left in October after the club's relegation, and was named Altos manager for the 2017 campaign shortly after.[17]
On 27 February 2017, Diá left Altos to manage Sampaio Corrêa.[18] He won the year's Campeonato Maranhense and achieved promotion with the club in the season, but was sacked in May 2018 after a poor start in the second division.[19]
On 28 July 2018, Diá returned to Campinense for the 2019 campaign,[20] but resigned in May 2019. He returned to ABC in September,[21] but opted to leave the club in December 2020 after refusing a wage cut.[22]
On 17 December 2020, Diá was appointed Ferroviário manager,[23] but resigned the following 5 September.[24] For the 2022 season, he took over Juazeirense and Pouso Alegre before returning to Altos on 26 April.[25] He only lasted 19 days at the latter club before being sacked on 16 May.[26]
On 4 July 2022, Diá returned to Ferroviário,[27] but was unable to prevent their relegation from the third division. On 23 January 2023, he replaced Moisés Egert at the helm of Botafogo-PB,[28] but was himself sacked on 3 March.[29]
